Other products made by Smooth-On include liquid foams, both flexible and rigid; castable and laminating epoxies, epoxy putty for sculpture, epoxy adhesives, polymer modified gypsum, concrete additives and release agents.

He explained it initially served the foundry industry around the world, including Bethlehem Steel. It sold repair materials that would be mixed with water and smoothed onto cracks in castings that would come out of foundries with imperfections.
